But You LOOK Good!TM

 
 

Do Your Loved Ones Have a Hard Time Understanding Your Chronic Illness or Pain,

Because to Them You LOOK Fine?

 
But You LOOK Good! is a 52 page booklet that gives those living with chronic illness and pain a voice about how they feel, what  they need and how others can be an encouragement to them. It is a convenient, informative way to educate loved ones about what people living with ongoing illness and pain struggle with, fight for and need from their friends and family. It is easy to read, gives practical ideas on how loved ones can be supportive and is not too long for readers to lose interest!
 
This booklet gets to the heart of why our friends and family have difficulty with understanding ongoing illness and pain. It serves as a tool to help explain to loved ones how extreme fatigue, pain, dizziness, cognitive impairments and other symptoms can be limiting, even though the person may not "look" sick or in pain. Moreover, it gives them simple, pragmatic ways to truly be an encouragement, "What to say," "What not to say" and "Why," along with "How to help."  Often loved ones are enlightened as to why their well-meaning advice is not always well-received. It is cherished by both those living with illness or injury, as well as those who love them!

See What Others Had to Say about But You LOOK Good!

"I always wished I could find a booklet like this! The information on your site is great and since it's so hard to explain MS or other invisible disabilities to others, I am grateful to you for writing your booklet and making it available." - Brenda, Indiana 

"Terrific insights and communicated clearly...my husband said it finally opened his eyes to what I had been trying to say all these years. Thanks."   - Sue, New Jersey

"I just finished reading the [But You LOOK Good] booklet and although I found myself filling up with tears on almost each and every page, I enjoyed it immensely." - Bonnie, Rhode Island

 

"My husband read [the booklet] straight away and I actually got a cup of tea in bed this morning, what a treat!" - Kris, Australia

 

"This is the best book I have ever read in regard to invisible disabilities...I have had such a hard time explaining what I go through and how I feel. I cried and cried reading the book because it described me to a tee. I think you are a wonderful person for putting all of this in writing and making it understandable. Thank you so much." - Debbie, Virginia.

 

"I encouraged my mom to order your book, But You LOOK Good.  She said it's helped her to better understand that [just] because I look ok on the outside, doesn't mean I feel ok on the inside. I am grateful for your site and your book, I don't think my mom would have ever understood without it. She's passed it along throughout the family and everyone who has read it so far has had a better understanding of what just daily life does to me. Thank you so much for writing this book, and sharing it with us, it truly has been a godsend to me." - Kelli, Illinois.

"You have said what I have wanted to say to so many people for so many years. I have suffered with Crohn's disease for 35 years. I have never been able to find anyone who could really understand what it's like to suffer with an illness that can affect every aspect of my life all the while, looking (for the most part) normal on the outside. Not that I have been searching for pity, just some understanding. My thanks goes out to you!"  - Matt, Washington
